Each episode of “Good Food, Good Deeds” features a celebrity guest who experiences the fast-paced, inspiring, and fulfilling work of a Meals On Wheels volunteer. The show also features segments in which co-hosts Henderson and Bauer have fun preparing a delicious and nutritious meal.

New Logo and Slogan Highlight National Association's Emphasis for Meal Delivery Programs Nationwide

The Meals On Wheels Association of America unveiled a new logo and slogan at the national conference in Chicago in late August.

"We Are Meals On Wheels...so no senior goes hungry" is the new emphasis of the campaign. Ready made marketing materials were shared with individual member agencies in attendance. Teresa Barry, CEO, and Nora Logsdon, dietitian and program manager, attended the conference on behalf of Meals On Wheels of Stark & Wayne Counties.

We will continue to roll out individual items from the campaign via this blog, as well as on our Facebook and Twitter pages. (If you haven't already, now would be a great time to "like" us on Facebook, and become a follower on Twitter!)

Please help spread the word in your community about Meals On Wheels of Stark & Wayne Counties, and how we can help seniors and other homebound individuals get the nutrition they need. We can be reached Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 330-832-7220.

United Way Day of Caring Volunteers Make a Difference for Meals On Wheels

Volunteers from area companies came out in full force to support Meals On Wheels of Stark & Wayne Counties on Sept. 1, as part of the annual Day of Caring, sponsored locally by the United Way of Greater Stark County.

A total of 119 people from 12 employers descended on our administrative office and 14 of our sites to help prepare and deliver meals and complete other projects.

One group of employees from the Timken Company painted the lobby and hallways of our administrative office building (lower right). We're grateful to Harrison Paint for donating the paint, and The Wooster Brush Company for donating the rollers, extensions and brushes needed to complete the job.

Other organizations that assisted at Meals on Wheels were: The Health Plan; Union Metal; Suarez Corporation; Massillon Independent; Smith Barta; Atkinson Feucht Hare Funeral Home; Krugliak Wilkins Law Office; PolyOne; Leonard Insurance; United Parcel Service; and Brown Mackie College.

According to an article in today's Independent, almost 1,200 volunteers from 53 area workplaces helped during the Day of Caring. The event is part of the kickoff of the United Way's annual fund drive.

Our thanks to the United Way and the participating employers for their help!

Congratulations to Nicholas Singer of Massillon, Winner of Our Buehler's Shopping Spree Promotion

During June and July, Rick Mirenzi and Pastor Berry Carter of the Akron-Canton Connection radio show on WHBC helped spread the word about a shopping spree promotion at Buehler's grocery store in Jackson Township.

Tickets were available for $5 each for a chance to win a 90-second shopping spree, with proceeds going to Meals On Wheels of Stark & Wayne Counties. Nicholas Singer of Massillon was the winner as the result of a drawing that took place live on the air during Rick and Berry's show on July 27.

Nicholas' big day came on Tuesday, Aug. 23, as he was greeted at Buehler's by Rick and by Teresa Barry and Nora Logsdon of Meals On Wheels, and Dave Allen of Buehler's Community Relations.

Not only did Nicholas gain a basketful of food, but Meals On Wheels raised more than $500 thanks to the promotion! We congratulate Nicholas and thank Buehler's and the Akron-Canton Connection for their support of Meals On Wheels.
